Description
Prostate Specific Antigen (PSA) is a single chain glycoprotein confined to the cytoplasm of prostatic acinar cells and ductal epithelium. The presence of PSA has been demonstrated in normal, benign hyperplastic and malignant prostatic tissue in metastatic prostatic carcinoma and also in prostatic fluid as well as seminal plasma. Elevated serum PSA levels have been reported in patients with prostate cancer, benign prostatic hypertrophy or inflammatory conditions of their genitourinary tissues. Especially in patients treated with hormone therapy, concurrent serial determinations of PSA and PAP may provide additional clinical value in monitoring patients with prostatic cancer.
